Picking other peoples shit up again. To be fair this was on a path on the way down and could have fell off a pack I suppose!

Bonus couple of mountain Hares on the way down too. Don't seem to see many these day's!

That's one of the designated reusable pish bottles for tent dwellers, someone will have known the Bushmeister was en route and left it there for you

That's a good shout mate but it still had an inch of water in it when I found it!

Back out on Kinder scout again last night. Had company this time and it was first time out for a lad that I work with. It's an absolute killer of a walk up from Edale upto Grindslow Knoll.. especially with big pack on!! Really steep going up but once your on top it stays pretty flat. Good night. No drama's. Didn't really take any pics either! 

The elevation graph!

My heart rate went bezerkers going up!! 

It's a good little work out though to be truthful and feels like you've earned your snap and a can or three once your set up. Hitting the lake district hopefully next month!

What are the apps you’re using mate?I normally do 17-20 kilometres a day but yesterday did a 29 (meant to do 30),going to try and do two 30’s a week in prep for a trek I am planning,the elevation gain is 35,000 feet,I am in my 50’s so not exactly a spring chicken.

Strava and Garmin ( connect ) mate. Nice to log it on strava just to have it for future reference if you ever need to look back at your route for example. I wear a Garmin forerunner 955 solar virtually all the time other that when I'm at work. Tracks more things than I'll ever be bothered about but it good for keeping an eye on you heart rate and also tells you your VO2 max which I found interesting and a bit motivating when I'm running or cycling. Not doing much of either of those at the moment!! Lol..
